Answer:

197200atm

Explanation:

There are different units to express pressure of a gas, some of them are atmosphere, Bar, Kilopascal, Pascal, torr among other.

In this exercise we need to know the equivalence between atm and Kpa.

if, 1kp=0,00986atm

then,

(2,000 x104kPa)*(0,00986atm)/1Kpa= 0,00986 atm

Answer:

197.4 atm is the Answer.

Explanation:

Pressure can be expressed in unit of torr, mm Hg, psi, atm, kPa etc

1 atm = 760 torr = 760 mm Hg = 14.7 psi = 101.325 kPa

So Here to convert atm to kPa the conversion factor is either $\frac {1atm}{101.325kPa}$ or $\frac {101.325kPa}{1atm}$

We need the answer in atm so kPa should get cancel and it should be in the denominator

$2.000 \times 10^4 kPa\times \frac {1atm}{101.325kPa}$

=197.4 atm is the Answer.

Isotope atoms mean, atoms with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons in their nuclei . The given oxygen atoms are isotopes meaning they have different number of neutrons in their nuclei . Oxygen 16 have 8 protons and 8 neutrons in its nucleus but Oxygen has 8 protons and 10 neutrons. That's what make them different.

A 256 mL sample of HCl gas is in a flask where it exerts a force (pressure) of 67.5 mmHg. What is the pressure of the gas if it

Effectus [21]

Answer:

The pressure in the new flask would be $128\; \rm mmHg$ if the $\rm HCl$ here acts like an ideal gas.

Explanation:

Assume that the $\rm HCl$ sample here acts like an ideal gas. By Boyle's Law, the pressure $P$ of the gas should be inversely proportional to its volume $V$ .

For example, let the initial volume and pressure of the sample be $V_1$ and $P_1$ . The new volume $V_2$ and pressure $P_2$ of this sample shall satisfy the equation: $P_1 \cdot V_1 =P_2 \cdot V_2$ .

In this question,

The initial volume of the gas is $V_1= 256\; \rm mL$ .
The initial pressure of the gas is $P_1 = 67.5\; \rm mmHg$ .
The new volume of the gas is $V_2 = 135\; \rm mL$ .

The goal is to find the new pressure of this gas, $P_2$ .

Assume that this sample is indeed an ideal gas. Then the equation $P_1 \cdot V_1 =P_2 \cdot V_2$ should still hold. Rearrange the equation to separate the unknown, $P_2$ . Note: make sure that the units for $V_1$ and $V_2$ are the same before evaluating. That way, the unit of

$\begin{aligned} & P_2\\ &= \frac{P_1 \cdot V_1}{V_2} \\ &= \frac{256\; \rm mL \times 67.5\; \rm mmHg}{135\; \rm mL} \\ & \approx 128\; \rm mmHg\end{aligned}$ .
